Chess Classic Lunchbreak after eight rounds: Aronian takes the lead!

12.08.2005 - Lunchbreak in Mainz during the FiNet Chess960 Open: three rounds were played this morning, and the players have three more tough rounds to go today. One player is leading the field all alone: Levon Aronian scored three wins today and after eight rounds he has scored 7,5 points! The Armenian won important games against the winner of the Sparkassen Open in Dortmund, Arkadi Naiditsch and also scored fine wins over Ivan Sokolov and Etienne Bacrot today. However, Ivan Sokolov and Artur Yussupov follow with seven points. An exciting finish is expected. In round nine, Yussupov and Aronian will battle it out. Sokolov will play against “the divine” Eric Lobron.
